Does your heart resonate with Christ’s message for the marginalized, the guilty, the overlooked, the incarcerated, or those seeking redemption?

- Personal responsibility and societal justice (Matthew 25:31-46, Romans 12:17-21)
- The nature of time and judgment (Ecclesiastes 3:16-17)
- God’s requirements for His people (Micah 6:1-8, Amos 5:8-15)
- Or the essence of righteousness and care for the vulnerable (James 1:27, Psalm 68:5-6)
